Linux "Linux App Finder's mission is to catalog useful GNU/Linux programs and provide a great resource to discover new apps". The programs are organized in categories to browse the collection. It has an alternatives page to find an equivalent Linux app to replace your Windows or OS X app when you make that switch. The app's page has user submitted screenshots and a research section where links to reviews for that app is provided.

That's why these applications are free.


No, they're NOT all free. Some of them (such as this one) require that you purchase them.

There is a benefit here.

If Tomcat is so much in love with Microsoft products as he spouts off here, he will of course have looked at that site using Internet Explorer, Windows defender and Windows Firewall. Therefore, his machine is now hosed.

We dont need to ban Tomcat as he has essentially done that himself. When he gets his machine up and running again, we will all have a good laugh at his expense.

You must be completely clueless. The link that I provided was to Linux App Finder. That's the subject of this article. *SMACK*

Most are free, but some are not. For users who are logged into the site there is a Filter Options link available when browsing that saves your preferences.

Filters include the interface (including toolkit), free vs. non-free, and ability to select specific repositories.
